　　The famous director of a big and expensive movie planned to film a beautiful sunset over the ocean, so that the audiences could see his hero and heroine in front of it at the end of the film as they said goodbye to each other for ever．He sent his camera crew(攝制組)out one evening to film the sunset for him．

　　The next morning he said to the men, “Have you provided me with that sunset?”

　　“No, sir,” the man answered．

　　The director was angry．“Why not?” he said．

　　“Well, sir,” one of the men answered．“We’re on the east coast here, and the sun sets in the west．We can get you a sunrise over the sea, if necessary, but not a sunset．”

　　“But I want a sunset, ” the director shouted．“Go to the airport, take the next flight to the west coast, and get one．”

　　But then a young secretary had an idea．“Why don’t you photograph a sunrise,” she suggested, “and then play it backwards? Then it’ll look like a sunset．”

　　“That’s a very good idea!” the director said．Then he turned to the camera crew and said, “Tomorrow morning I want you to get me a beautiful sunrise over the sea．”

　　The camera crew went out early the next morning and filmed a bright sunrise over the beach in the middle of a beautiful bay．Then at nine o’clock they took it to the director．“Here it is, sir, ” they said, and gave it to him．He was very pleased．

　　They all went into the studio．“All right, ” the director explained, “now our hero and heroine are going to say goodbye．Run the film backwards so that we can see the ‘sunset’ behind them．”

　　The “sunset” began, but after a quarter of a minute, the director suddenly put his face in his hands and shouted to the camera crew to stop．

　　The birds in the film were flying backwards, and the waves on the sea were going away from the beach．

　　A new study suggests that very young children who watch a lot of television may have attention problems later in school．

　　Children with attention problems cannot sit still or control their actions．They talk too much, lose things, forget easily and are not able to finish tasks．

　　People with attention problems may suffer a condition known as Attention Deficit Disorder(A．D．D．)．Experts say the cause of A．D．D．involves chemicals in the brain．Teachers say many children in the United States are showing signs of disorder．Some education researchers have been saying for years that watching television at a very young age could change the normal development of the brain．For example, they say that children who watch a lot of television are not able to sit and read for an extended period of time．

　　The new study tested the idea that television watching by very young children is linked to attention problems by the age of seven．It involved more than 1300 children．There were two groups of children, ages one and three．Researchers at Children’s Hospital in Seattle, Washington reported the results in the publication Pediatrics(兒科)．They asked the parents how often the children watched television．The parents also described their children’s actions at the age of seven using a method that can tell if someone suffers Attention Deficit Disorder．

　　The children who watched a lot of television at an early age were most likely to have attention problems．Every hour of watching television increased the chances of having attention problems by about ten percent．

　　The researchers say that all the children with attention problems might not have A．D．D．But they still could face major learning problems in school．The findings support advice by a group of doctors that children under the age of two should not watch television．

　　One of the researchers says there are other reasons why children should not watch television．Earlier studies have linked it with children becoming too fat and too aggressive(好斗的)．Other experts say the new study is important, but more work needs to be done to confirm the findings and better explain the cause and effect．

　　本文描述的是兒童看電視對他們以后的一些消極的影響。孩子過早地看電視或者看電視過多都會導致孩子記憶力難以集中，多動，好斗，容易忘事等等。
